fails WP:NORG, none of the coverage is significant Lyndaship (talk) 18:29, 29 May 2018 (UTC)


 *  Delete - pending the first source couldn't reasonably be said to meet WP:SIGCOV, and none of the others get close. The same is true of a few other mentions available on a search. With WP:NCORP standards being so much higher, this article doesn't seem to satisfy them Nosebagbear (talk) 18:54, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep - Significant coverage in and  ~Kvng (talk) 15:34, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I am on the fence about this, but I have a hunch that this is notable. There are not a lot of sweet shops in Chennai about which articles would be published in newspapers. Sri Krishna Sweets is one which I know is very popular due to its Mysorepak. It is quite possible that this one is popular as well. I want to thank for the sources, although personally I don't think they are enough to be counted as significant coverage. I will look for more sources.--DreamLinker (talk) 08:30, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Some references
 * This is an article about how the business is now being split among the third generation of the family
 * This is a short review
 * (Already mentioned by Kvng above) Short review, but it is interesting that Grand Sweets is listed alongside Sri Krishna Sweets, which is quite famous.
 * There is a paragraph about a family feud and splitting the business. The article calls it the "best known sweet shop in Chennai"
 * This is an interesting reference to the shop in a book reviewed here. In general this is an indication of cultural significance.
 * I guess this is good enough for me for go for a keep.--DreamLinker (talk) 08:50, 3 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep based on the sources above. I believe this shop is well known in Chennai and it merits an article.--DreamLinker (talk) 08:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Pending consideration from additional sources Nosebagbear (talk) 09:49, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
